SEASONAL STORAGE
Height increase of dams- Storage of more water
- Better protection against floods
Synthetic fuels(gas or liquid)

CO2, H2O
• A SOFC is inherently a separator of oxygen and nitrogen of air
• Anodic flow is mainly CO2 and H2O that can be used in a sub-
atmospheric Brayton cycle improving the overall electrical
efficiency (up to 80%) with an efficient CO2 recovery

DAILY STORAGE 2Example: Storage through reversable flow cycles
Thermo-Electric Energy Storage
Assisted Charging
Storage charging:A heat-pump cycle consumes electricity from the grid and charges thermal storagesHot water tank can then be heated by solar or waste heat

Charge: heating storage water using heat pumps
Discharge: electricity production by engine cycles like ORC

CONCLUSION
• ELECTRICITY STORAGE IS A KEY ELEMENT OF THE ENERGY TRANSITION TOWARDS RENEWABLES
• DAILY ENERGY STORAGE, IN PARTICULAR OF ELECTRICITY, GROWS AT A HIGH PACE
• THERE IS A COMPETITION BETWEEN CENTRALIZED AND DECENTRALISED TECHNOLOGIES
• SEASONAL STORAGE REMAINS A MAJOR CHALLENGE (SYNTHETIC FUELS)
• REDUCING EMBEDDED ENERGY, AND MATERIAL RECYCLING REPRESENT ANOTHER CHALLENGE
